Heard on a YouTube vlog today: "if you name your child Hunter, his life is gonna be fucked up."

I think Hunter Tylo's okay.

She's on a soap opera.

If you let someone handcuff you, and put a rope around your neck, don't act all surprised if they hang you!

- Eyal Yanilov.

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.

You'd think they'd have a lot more warnings / maybe a cop stationed there.

Instead they have a camera to record the fun.  :hmm:

Razgovory

Is alright to lie to a cat?  I told my cat, Grey Cat, that she is descended from a long line of illustrious noble cats, such as Lord Scot Grey who raised a famous mounted regiment for the British army.  I don't think that's actually true, but Grey seemed to like it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Seems to me like enough is being done.  Drivers = stupid/inexperienced

Clearly enough isn't being done if there is a bridge collision there at least once a month!

One that occurred to me is briefly mentioned here:
QuoteIt's hard to see how more "low-clearance" signs will significantly improve the situation. But maybe a different kind of signeage would get the driver's attention.

Something like - if you are in a truck you will not fit under the bridge!

After all, not everyone, especially those renting) will actually know the height of their vehicle.
